IxDA Pittsburgh

I'm working on a presentation for an event coming up in early 2012. I'll be talking about working with developers (for fun and profit). To that end, I've put together a survey, trying to get an idea about how integrated the average designer is with their development team. It's only 22 questions, most of which are multiple choice. Please take the time to fill it out. I'll share the results in my presentation, as well as on DesignAday.

Come have coffee at COFFEE TREE ROASTERS in BAKERY SQUARE
before work (at 8am) on Thursday, March 31. Take the opportunity to
meet other local designers, talk about trends in the industry, share
projects, problems and ideas and receive a treat courtesy of Coffee Tree
Roasters. Look for the IxDA Pittsburgh sign.

Coffee Tree Roasters is located at 6425 Penn Ave. in East Liberty. There is plenty of parking available in the Bakery Square lot.
